(Amended by Ordinance Nos. 143623 and 164223, effective May 29, 1991.) Each
new member of the police reserve shall make an application on a blank form
provided by the Chief of Police, giving such data concerning his age, weight,
identification, residence, occupation, previous experience in police work, if
any, citizenship, and other data as the Chief of Police may find necessary or
convenient, including fingerprinting for better identification. Members of such
police reserve shall be entitled to no compensation unless specifically
authorized and provided by the Council. Upon appointment each member shall take
an oath of office similar to the oath required of regular members of the Bureau
of Police, and such oath shall be filed with the City Auditor. Regular members
of the reserve shall serve during the pleasure of the Chief and shall wear a
uniform prescribed by the Chief of Police. They shall perform the duties and
take training as directed by the Chief of Police. They shall observe the rules
of deportment and conduct applicable to regular police officers. They shall, in
the performance of their duties, be subject to the orders of commanding officers
of the regular and reserve police force of the City. They shall, at all times,
cooperate with regular police officers in the performance of their duties. While
on any authorized assignment they shall be covered by the City’s self-insurance
as authorized under the provisions of the Oregon State Workers’ Compensation
Act. The insurance shall be in a form approved by the City Attorney. It is
unlawful for any person whose appointment has been terminated, to retain
possession or refuse to return any badge, identification or equipment issued to
such person after demand for the return has been made by the Mayor, Chief of
Police or anyone acting under and by the authority of the Mayor or Chief of
Police. Members of the special duty police reserve shall be subject to police
duty only when special occasion therefor arises. Each member shall provide his
own equipment, subject to the approval of the Chief of Police, and shall make
such reports as the Chief of Police may require.
